That's a giant red flag for that grocer potentially declining to renew their lease, vegan gluten free customers don't want to walk through a cloud of cigarette smoke to get to their ethically sourced non-GMO organic avocado, and obviously the "no smoking within 50 feet" sign is going to be ignored by the customers of that neighboring business, who are all a bunch of smokers.

As for the median American in my age group, yes I'm way beyond that and I attribute that success to the following:- Willing to delay gratification on a regular basis- Willing to do jobs no one else wants to do- Willing to work long hours for results (a strong work ethic)- Willing to take calculated but high upside/low downside risks- Willing to allow the "fruits of my labor" to be returned to the business instead of paying for a lavish lifestyle- A strong commitment to these principles by my spouse- A strong run of being healthy enough to work to produce excess profits- The fortuitous grace of being born and growing up in the United States, where opportunities for financial success are everywhere and accessible to anyone- A splash of luck at being in the "right place at the right time"

@Zane M.The scenario you mentioned brings up legal and ethical issues, particularly in terms of occupancy requirements for specific loan programs and the possibility of misrepresenting intentions.

That’s my job, to represent my client’s best interests, negotiate to help them best achieve their goals, abiding by all the laws, Fair Housing and Code of Ethics along the way.If someone doesn’t want to sign an agreement with me, they are free to consider another Realtor® who has a different business model and practices, or even go forth unrepresented.  

However, I want to ensure that I approach this ethically and professionally.

I can tell you this tho, we definitely make up for all of our short comings by having high ethics and genuinely caring for all of our investors.

This actually might be illegal of your CPA to suggest since they can't do/suggest things for the primary purpose of manipulating the audit regime of the IRS as it violates our code of ethics.

These can often lead to meaningful connections that turn into investment partnerships.Legal and Ethical Considerations: Make sure any partnership agreement is vetted by a legal professional to protect all parties involved.

They appreciate top-notch services, industry knowledge, tech advancements, open dialogue, teamwork, and strong ethics.

These are professionals with additional training and a stricter code of ethics.
